What did human communities look like 20,000 years ago?

Futurum

Their studies indicate this area was intensively occupied by hunter-gatherers, who were responsible for the birth of architecture in the region. Evidence was found of fire pits surrounded by small post holes, too small for an architectural structure. “We THE IMPORTANCE OF ARCHITECTURE. THE IMPORTANCE OF ARCHITECTURE.

Creating software that works for everyone

Futurum

Smart parking app software architecture and key software structures. John agrees that combining studies in computing with science, social science or business courses will not only give you a broader education but will allow you to apply your software engineering skills in a wider range of applications (e.g., © IEEE 2021.

The power of geographic information systems: bringing data to life with maps

Futurum

I started studying architecture, but after two weeks, I realised I didn’t want to study buildings. I wanted to study something living, so I switched to an animal science program. I began my career in the technical side of GIS, but I have been wooed to the social sciences.

How can we unravel the complex history of networks?

Futurum

Dr Min Xu, a statistician specialising in network analysis at Rutgers University, has developed a probabilistic model that can determine how a network has grown, which not only has applications in epidemiology, but is also useful in social science, genetics and counter-terrorism efforts. What is a network? “A

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

Perhaps even the architecture of the network can change. Probably it’s because neural nets capture the architectural essence of actual brains. But what if we just set up neural nets with a given architecture, and pick their weights at random? But one can’t have a truly “model-less model”. Let’s look at a very simple case.

Delve Talks: Winnie Karanja, Maydm

Maydm

As a high school student, Winnie had a passion for both math and the social sciences. Her teachers pushed her into the “easier” path of social sciences rather than encourage her interest in STEM subjects. And I just have a deep appreciation of culture and history and architecture. But I really was great at math.
